    I live with my parents.. so when they go out they will bring home the fruits & veggies but it's hard to get them to buy stuff that's specifically for me.

    So when I go out I have 3 things definitely on my list:

    1) sweet potatoes - I eat one every other day or so

    2) plain greek yogurt - breakfast on MWF

    3) starbucks double shot - easier than making my own coffee & it's my treat to start the day

    4) plain old fashioned oats - breakfast on TTh

    I'm a pretty boring eater.

    -Oatmeal - quick cooking is my fave since I microwave it
    -Natural peanut butter
    -Salad mix - usually Earthbound farms
    -Veggies that I can chop up to eat with hummus (which is also on my list) - right now I'm liking bell peppers and cauliflower
    -Sweet potatoes and sometimes redskin potatoes (I've realized the redskins cook up pretty nicely in the microwave on the baked potato setting)
    -Triscuits, wheat thins or the Almond Breeze nut thins
    -Fruit - always apples, usually some kind of citrus and whatever else is on sale/looks good
    -Almond Breeze almond milk - usually unsweetened vanilla or just original. I like putting it in tea.
    -Eggs
    -Some sort of meat for whatever recipe I'm making - seems to usually be chicken/turkey sausage, ground turkey, chicken breasts or lean-ish ground beef
    -I don't buy a ton of bread any more - usually just flours to make my own - white whole wheat, cornmeal, etc.
    -Flavored coffee creamer (I know, bad - but it's one of my last few vices that I'm not ready to give up yet :-))
    -Typically one or 2 "treat" type things - some dark chocolate, ice cream, etc.

    lots of recipes :~)


    also for my grocery list just look at my diary. I buy a lot of diverse things..

    ETA: new ideas is great.. but it's not what you buy.. it's how you cook it, what you cook it with and how much of it you eat in one sitting. The picking some recipes and getting your list from there is a great idea.

    We feed two -- one vegetarian and one flexitarian. Our usual list looks something like this, though we don't buy every item every week.

    Tofu
    Morningstar Farms Grillers crumbles
    Eggs (2 dozen)
    Cheese (cheddar and jack)
    Almond or soy milk
    Soy creamer
    Whole grain bread
    Peanut butter
    Broccoli
    Carrots (baby and large)
    Celery
    Onions
    Garlic
    Sour cream
    Yogurt
    Salad greens (lettuce and/or spinach)
    Bell peppers
    Cauliflower
    Strawberries
    Whole pineapple
    Oranges
    Apples
    Coffee
    Brown rice
    Herbs and spices (in bulk, as needed)
    Vegetable juice
    Canned beans (black, chickpeas, pintos, kidneys, chili)
    Oatmeal (rolled oats, not the instant stuff)
    Whole grain pasta
    Pasta sauce OR canned tomatoes for making sauce

    We are on a tight-ish budget, so we tend to buy in bulk, buy one or two kinds of fruit per week, and buy in quantities that offer the best per-piece price. We buy a lot of stuff on sale and freeze -- onions and peppers are chopped and frozen, for example. We will also sometimes buy tempeh, seitan, soy bacon, and other things if they are on sale or there is room in the budget. We have very few "one trick ponies" in our pantry -- everything can be used for multiple recipes. We also save all of our veggie scraps for broth. We buy seasonal produce as we can -- fresh tomatoes, fresh herbs, etc. We're going to try growing some of our own this year too.

    My diet generally consists of: Banana, broccoli, lemon, berries, mango, spinach, Courgette, lettuce, bell peppers, plums, dried apricots, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, cottage cheese, Greek yoghurt, hummus, sesame ryvita, chicken, beef, mackerel, cod, salmon, potato, quinoa, bulgar wheat, green tea

    things always in the house: bread, pasta, porridge, eggs, cereal, chocolate, apples, cucumber, tomatoes, celery, milk, breakfast frusili bars, fruit juice, grapes, nuts and dried fruit (unsalted)

    I try to eat light to heavy as it suits my household - we've always had a big dinner together there are certain things I want to increase but I do take a range of vitamins and minerals including Aloe Vera and spirulina powder

    I try to eat a variety of things to get a good range of nutrients but I think you'll always find repetition in your purchases -if its working for you don't worry.....

    I don't buy bread cause I go to uni and that food is surprisingly easy to get for free... (and I like to avoid it anyway). I don't like buying too many things I have to prepare because people steal things from the fridges in my hall.
